'Critic in the Cabernet' ep Reaction ***SPOILERS***
***** Spoilers *******
I'll borrow a trick from spacekid77 and post what I just wrote in
tempertemper77 's LJ:
I'm still a little shell-shocked from the ending, but the last two minutes were worth the rest of it.
My initial thoughts:
- The case was crap. But the two women with babies provided, well, <i>babies</i> for her to pick up and play with. Meh.
- The baby thing was very jolting, and made her seem even more out there in left field. Despite all the foreshadowing they have done, it still was a shock.
-Booth was not acting like Booth, but I'll attribute that to the brain tumor. Of course he would be involved, and I like to think that Stewie was his projection of that even though the tumor was screwing it up.
- Her reaction to his repeated hallucinations was awesome - from that moment on the ep was made of win. She basically made the emotional connection right there.
- Sweets rocked. His melt-down was priceless and perfect and made me love him a little bit for the first time. He was a terrified duckling there for a minute.
-Cam and Angela are a shipper's dream. I love Cam/Booth friendship moments.
-The prep scene onward: I can't say enough about DB, and the range of emotions all over his face. He so clearly loves her. And his insistence she 'take his stuff'. I expected it, but it still hit me hard. *tears up*
Gah... I could go on for hours. Next week can't come soon enough...
ADDENDUM:
In addition to above, most of all I'm a lot anxious about the finale. I think I have a pretty good theory now that I know the brain issue, but you guys are probably totally sick of my theories. *grins*

Do you think he really thought he was seeing a box of donuts? :)
